Movie Dialogue Sample
00:39:19,916 --> 00:39:21,250
Follow me.
349
00:39:33,291 --> 00:39:38,458
I know my lungs are damaged.
Can you cure them?
350
00:39:39,541 --> 00:39:42,291
I am but an acupuncturist, sir.
351
00:39:44,166 --> 00:39:46,375
Is there something you'd like to say?
352
00:39:49,083 --> 00:39:50,625
No, Your Highness.
353
00:39:52,500 --> 00:39:53,875
Tell me.
354
00:39:54,916 --> 00:39:58,000
Will you turn a blind eye
to a patient's illness?
355
00:40:13,958 --> 00:40:16,625
Your body is very hard and stiff, sir.
356
00:40:17,458 --> 00:40:20,416
Excessive worrying
prevents good blood circulation.
357
00:40:20,500 --> 00:40:24,250
Please unburden your mind to recover, sir.
358
00:40:29,583 --> 00:40:30,916
Open the windows.
359
00:40:32,500 --> 00:40:34,750
I think my cough has subsided.
360
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:45,666
I shall bring in the light, sir.
361
00:40:51,541 --> 00:40:53,750
My father, the King…
362
00:40:53,833 --> 00:40:55,750
His hands have become quite cold.
363
00:40:57,083 --> 00:40:59,833
Will you treat him for me as well?
364
00:41:00,416 --> 00:41:03,041
How dare a humble man like me
treat His Majesty?
365
00:41:11,916 --> 00:41:13,250
I'm asking you to.
366
00:41:16,166 --> 00:41:17,541
Yes, Your Highness.
367
00:41:18,875 --> 00:41:19,875
Thank you.
368
00:41:30,916 --> 00:41:35,708
Now, I'll insert one in your neck
to relieve your stress, sir.
369
00:41:36,708 --> 00:41:37,958
Wait.
370
00:41:47,291 --> 00:41:48,208
You can see.
371
00:41:49,791 --> 00:41:50,958
No, Your Highness.
372
00:41:51,708 --> 00:41:53,583
Are you trying to fool me?
373
00:41:55,583 --> 00:41:57,458
I dare not, Your Highness!
374
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:00,000
Will you keep lying?
375
00:42:09,833 --> 00:42:12,166
I'm done being treated by him.
376
00:42:17,500 --> 00:42:18,583
Let's go.
377
00:43:03,625 --> 00:43:04,500
Follow me.
378
00:43:10,416 --> 00:43:13,416
If you can't see,
how did you write letters to your brother?
379
00:43:14,375 --> 00:43:17,083
Your Highness,
I know it's hard to believe.
380
00:43:17,166 --> 00:43:19,166
I can't see in the light,
381
00:43:19,250 --> 00:43:22,333
but I can see somewhat in the dark, sir.
382
00:43:23,333 --> 00:43:24,541
I deserve to die,
383
00:43:24,625 --> 00:43:30,500
but without me,
my sick brother will die, sir.
384
00:43:30,583 --> 00:43:31,625
Please forgive me.
385
00:43:32,666 --> 00:43:36,541
Why did you claim
you can't see when you can?
386
00:43:37,833 --> 00:43:41,833
People don't want a blind man
to see things, sir.
387
00:43:46,250 --> 00:43:47,458
How old is your brother?
388
00:43:47,541 --> 00:43:48,875
Pardon?
389
00:43:51,833 --> 00:43:52,916
He is ten years old, sir.
390
00:43:54,666 --> 00:43:56,958
He's the same age as my son.
391
00:44:05,958 --> 00:44:07,125
What would you do?
392
00:44:08,333 --> 00:44:09,333
Sir?
393
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:13,708
You said I have an ailment in my heart.
394
00:44:16,291 --> 00:44:19,500
What can be done to cure it?
395
00:44:19,583 --> 00:44:23,333
Your Highness,
forgive me for speaking out of turn.
396
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:29,250
Will you keep pretending
you don't know and can't see?
397
00:44:31,333 --> 00:44:36,208
Sometimes it's healthier
to pretend not to see, sir.
398
00:44:38,291 --> 00:44:41,208
Do you mean that
I should become a blind man?
399
00:44:41,291 --> 00:44:44,791
There's no need for someone like you
to pretend to be blind, sir.
400
00:44:45,708 --> 00:44:50,291
Humble people like us must pretend
like we don't know anything and can't see.
401
00:44:50,375 --> 00:44:52,916
That's how I was able to come here, sir.
402
00:44:55,583 --> 00:45:01,041
You are ill because you can see,
and try to set things right, sir.
403
00:45:04,875 --> 00:45:06,125
Court maid Seo,
404
00:45:06,208 --> 00:45:08,041
turn off the lights.
405
00:45:23,333 --> 00:45:24,791
It's a magnifying glass.
406
00:45:28,708 --> 00:45:32,625
You wrote so many incorrect letters.
407
00:45:34,375 --> 00:45:37,750
To become a royal physician,
you must learn to write properly.
408
00:45:49,958 --> 00:45:53,333
Though it's better for your health
to not see or take any action,
409
00:45:53,416 --> 00:45:55,833
sometimes we must see and take action.
410
00:45:57,333 --> 00:46:01,458
Not only that,
we must keep our eyes wide open.
411
00:46:16,208 --> 00:46:18,708
I'm pleased
your coughing has subsided, sir.
412
00:46:20,166 --> 00:46:23,916
I've prepared some medicine
to lower your mild fever, sir.
413
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:25,041
As my physician is exceptional,
414
00:46:25,125 --> 00:46:27,458
my illness seems to have
vanished out of fear.
415
00:46:37,250 --> 00:46:39,583
-What?
-Is this right?
416
00:46:39,958 --> 00:46:40,916
Acupuncturist Cheon…
417
00:46:42,416 --> 00:46:45,500
As his condition im...
